What is the maximum speed you are allowed to drive a bus outside built-up areas when there are not enough seats for all passengers?

In Germany, when driving a bus outside built-up areas (such as rural roads or highways), if the bus does not have enough seats for all passengers, the maximum allowed speed is limited to 60 km/h. This rule ensures safety because standing passengers are less secure, and a lower speed reduces the risk of accidents and injuries. If all passengers have seats, higher speeds may be allowed, but when standing passengers are present, the speed limit is reduced to enhance safety. Remember this rule to drive safely and legally when transporting passengers in a bus.
